This fortnight's Small Shift, Big Impact is for the symptoms you've stopped questioning. The morning that feels like wading through fog. The afternoon you can't think your way out of. The evening you're somehow both wired and flat. The night you lie there exhausted, asking your body to please just sleep.
Most of us treat these as separate problems. They might be the same one, showing up at different hours.
Pick one, just one, for the next two weeks.

The Wind-Down That Isn't Working
1. Front-Loading Your Day
It's 9pm. The kids are down, the dishwasher is humming, and you find yourself looking for something in the kitchen. A piece of toast. A spoonful of peanut butter. Something sweet with your tea.
It's easy to read this as a habit to break. It might be the opposite. It might be your body asking for what it didn't get earlier in the day.
The body runs on a 24-hour rhythm. In the morning, it's set up to use fuel. Insulin sensitivity is higher, cortisol is naturally peaking, and digestion is at its most efficient. As the day goes on, those systems gradually wind down.
When breakfast is a coffee and lunch is squeezed in at the desk, the day's fuel hasn't actually been delivered. The body still needs it. So once things finally slow down in the evening, it goes looking. That's not something you're doing wrong. It's a rhythm issue.
Giving the body more of what it needs earlier in the day is what tends to settle the evening on its own.
This fortnight's Small Shift, Big Impact is for the symptoms you've stopped questioning. The mid-afternoon crash. The racing mind at bedtime. The gut issues after a meal. Most of us have just normalised them.Â
